Chris Christie Has Lowest Favorability In Republican Field

 September 6, 2023

Chris Christie, New Jersey's former governor, claims that he has what it takes to win a national general election.

It's looking like he's not even going to have enough stuff to make it out of the primaries.

Only 18% of Republicans currently view Christie in a positive light, while 73% disapprove of him.

You don't have to be a mathematician to realize that those are NOT good numbers. The man is an incredible FIFTY-FIVE points underwater.

But we expected such a result out of Christie, who has widely been considered nothing but a Republican In Name Only for years now.

Former Vice President Mike Pence, however, was beloved by Republicans just a few short years ago.

Now, he's almost as unpopular as Christie.

But not quite.

Just 30% of Republican voters currently view Pence in a favorable light.

The bad news doesn't end there, as 63% of voters see him an unfavorable light.

That's THIRTY-THREE points underwater.

Pence and Christie probably have a better shot than I do at winning the Republican primary, but that's about it.
